How to Improve Chinese Herb Tea Taste

Some people find it difficult to get the herbs down in tea form. This is completely understandable. Chinese herbs produce some really funky tastes.

However, with a little bit of cleverness, you CAN make your tea taste better. It’s all about the concentration sweet spot.

If you put one dose of the herb extract powder into 6 oz of hot water, it’ll have a very strong taste, something like espresso. If you add more water, you may notice other tastes coming out that are more herbal and earthy. If you add even more water, it will further dilute and the grassier higher notes of the formula will come out.

Your job is to find the concentration that appeals to you the most. Many people report that when they find that concentration sweet spot they will actually begin to crave the tea.
